I found this thing:

With the girl on the top left hand corner. How the heck does someone get their hair like that

 

[shadowplay]

It's an afro hair-texture. It's natural.

So on Saturday we bought KFC. I saved a bowl of potatoes and two chicken strips for later use.

How long does their food stay good, if anyone knows? Don't they just pull it out of a freezer, so it has the 5 days or so that normal meat would have after that point?

Anytime I save something from KFC I never end up eating it later and had to throw it out.

There are two countries, Niger and Nigeria.

People from one of them are called Nigerians i know but what are people from the other country called? Are people from both countries called Nigerians?

I think just "resident of Niger."

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

I think it's "Nigeriens" . . .

By the way, bonus points if you can figure out why I have this page saved

Suppose a couple marries in ... I estimate late March. And sometime in June or July they find out the girl is pregnant. Then the baby is born the next year. Is that long enough?

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

Long enough for what? People get married when the woman is already pregnant all the time.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Well suppose they didn't KNOW she was pregnant at the time of the marriage. It specifically says this.

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

If she was just barely pregnant in late March the baby could be born early in January I suppose.

 

[Xanikk999]

Well suppose they didn't KNOW she was pregnant at the time of the marriage. It specifically says this.

Well if they didnt know and they werent having sex looks like it wasnt the soon to be husbands kid.

If they were having sex than they should of expected this to happen unless they took a test that falsely said they werent pregnent.

There is nothing wrong with being born out of wedlock. It's just bad under traditional views but there is nothing logically wrong with it since they plan to stay together and raise the kid (hence they are getting married).

Did they even have tests in 1974?

Id need to look up the exact birthdate. Hang on a second.

EDIT: Can you believe this. I CANT FIND IT.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

I think they did have tests in 1974, yes

My Mum was pregnant for about 3 months before the Doctor believed her

EDIT: And Flying Pig was born just a few months after sex was invented.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

What did they do before that then?

 

[ParadigmShifter]

That was a joke based on Flying Pig's extraordinary age

Either ways. I found the part in the book. I had to dropped the names but by the fact that I have a book you should be able to figure it out:

Spoiler :

And we got married the year I came out here. It was '74. We got married about a week before we came out here [to California].
[NOTE: They moved out on April 1, 1974]
Soon after we moved to Los Angeles [NOTE: June-July 1974], I was told she was pregnant. So my first kid was born nine months later... I think some people think we got married because [Wife] was pregnant, but that wasn't the case. We didn't know she was pregnant.

EDIT: By 9 months later Im not sure if its 9 months after they found out or 9 months after they ... uhhh ...

I think I messed up a translation from French to English. The sentence says "N'est pas Wilbury que veut" which I translated to roughly "Is not Wilbury who wants." But that doesnt really make any sense. Any idea what it should be?

Google says "Not only does Wilbury" but this is a full sentence, not a part of one.

Why is it that whenever anywhere has a sale, they use a white writing on red scheme, and when there's a clearance, they use a black writing on yellow scheme?
